PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS Subject to Completion, Dated July 22, 2021 Juniper II Corp. $225,000,000 22,500,000 Units Juniper II Corp. is a newly organized blank check company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses, which we refer to throughout this prospectus as our initial business combination. We have not selected any specific business combination target, and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target with respect to an initial business combination with us. We intend to focus our search for a target business in the industrial sector. This is an initial public offering of our securities. Each unit has an offering price of $10.00 and consists of one share of our Class A common stock and one-fourth of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in this prospectus, and only whole warrants are exercisable. The warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination and will expire five years after the completion of our initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation, as described in this prospectus. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. We have also granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,375,000 units to cover over-allotments, if any. We will provide our stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares of our Class A common stock upon the completion of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account described below as of two business days prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding shares of Class A common stock that were sold as part of the units in this offering, which we refer to collectively as our public shares throughout this prospectus, subject to the limitations described herein. If we are unable to complete our business combination within 24 months, we will redeem 100% of the public shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account including interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to us to pay our franchise and income taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described herein. Our sponsor, Juniper II Management, LLC (which we refer to as our sponsor throughout this prospectus), will purchase an aggregate of 3,750,000 warrants (or 4,087,500 warrants if the underwriters over-allotment option is exercised in full) at a price of $2.00 per whole warrant ($7,500,000 in the aggregate, or $8,175,000 if the underwriters over-allotment option is exercised in full) in a private placement that will close simultaneously with the closing of this offering.

  • Honeywell (HON) Analyst: Gabriel Parras Spring 2016
    Honeywell (HON) Analyst: Gabriel Parras Spring 2016 Recommendation: BUY Target Price until (12/31/2017): $132 1. Reasons for the Recommendation Honeywell faces many challenges during the next year. The dollar continues to remain strong relative to other currencies, adversely affecting international sales. Also, growth in the global supply of oil will continue to outpace demand, driving down the price of many of Honeywell’s crude oil benchmarked product offerings in the PMT segment. However, despite sluggish global economic growth and the current state of the oil and gas industry, there are many reasons why Honeywell will outperform its competitors through 2017. Through their companywide management software titled Honeywell Operating System (HOS) Gold, Honeywell has achieved efficiency and cost synergies throughout its diverse portfolio of assets. This has become the main catalyst through which Honeywell continues to expand its operating margin. Secondly, Honeywell has a long history of making profitable acquisitions and divestitures that fit the strategic direction of its business segments. Finally, Honeywell’s commitment to continued dividend growth while maintaining disciplined capital allocation offers a better risk/return investment than its other peers in the industrial sector. For these three reasons, I recommend a buy rating for the stock. Margin Expansion Honeywell has seen tremendous growth in its margins over the past 5 years. Gross profit margin has increased from 21.83% in 2011 to 30.67% in 2015 while net income margin has increased from 5.66% in 2011 to 12.36%.1 More importantly, segment profit has increased across all three business segments for the same period.

  • Honeywell Technology Solutions from January 2009 to April 2013
    2017 ANNUAL REPORT Shareowners Letter This is my 16th and final letter to the shareowners of Honeywell. When I compare where we are today with the bleak early days of my first letter—which appeared in Honeywell’s 2002 Annual Report— I am reminded of what a tremendously fulfilling experience it has been to lead this great company. Those early days are fun to think about, but they sure were unpleasant at the time. Back then, we were an underperforming, problem-filled company with numerous legacy issues. Now, we are a company that routinely receives awards for financial, environmental, and community performance. I am proud to have played a role in bringing about all of these positive changes and building the foundation for the company we are today. When I first came to Honeywell, an analyst asked what I wanted my legacy to be. I said there were three things I wanted to accomplish. First, I wanted anyone associated with me during my time at Honeywell to be able to say they had done well.
